This means the model carries no star ratings from the NHTSA program, nor has a Safety Index been computed for it. While the vehicle's recall record is clean, with zero open campaigns and a small volume of owner complaints reporting no crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths, these data points do not provide information on crashworthiness. The absence of federal crash-test results should not be interpreted as an indication of crash safety performance, in either a positive or negative direction.
The 2021 Volvo S60 T8 Polestar Engineered was not crash-tested by NHTSA, carries zero recalls, and holds a Clean recall-and-complaint burden band according to NHTSA federal safety data.
